Business & farm
Thanks Amy,
But I realized that I cannot actually deduct my miles, because I only worked for that 2 week period in 2022 (I am semi-retired) and I did not work near where I live. So the place I traveled to is my "Tax Home." More specifically, as IRS Topic 511 Business Travel Expenses states:
"Generally, your tax home is the entire city or general area where your main place of business or work is
located, regardless of where you maintain your family home. For example, you live with your family in
Chicago but work in Milwaukee where you stay in a hotel and eat in restaurants. You return to Chicago every
weekend. You may not deduct any of your travel, meals or lodging in Milwaukee because that's your tax
home. Your travel on weekends to your family home in Chicago isn't for your work, so these expenses are
also not deductible. If you regularly work in more than one place, your tax home is the general area where
your main place of business or work is located."
Thanks again, however,
Mel
